Book Review: should have been a movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I was in the same pre-flight class at Ft. Wolters with Mr. Mason and his description of that month was right on.The rest of the book was outstanding and brought back memories of Vietnam. This book combined with his second book would have made an outstanding movie with the right screenplay and cast, in fact two movies.Book Review: Don't read this if....
Summary: 5 Stars
Don't read this book if you're looking for an over the top Rambo/Braddock conquer S.E. Asia single-handedly comic strip. If you want to learn a little bit about what it was like to fly a Huey in a strange land during an incomprehensible time, read this book. Read it then give it to someone else to read.Book Review: one of the best

Summary: 5 Stars
As the cover says, "The best book to come out of Vietnam". This is a hard hitting book which is very well described. Approx. 50 pages in, you are already riding in the chopper with 'Bob' Mason. A sorry tale but a very true one.Book Review: Down and Dirty

I have read 30+ vietnam era memoirs but if your looking for how it was as a Huey piot in the war. This book is the one for you. Mason does an excellent job depicting events. A masterpiece, a must read.
